Best Movie Speeches Part 1: In Order Of Appearance. - Any Given Sunday - Braveheart - The Great Dictator - Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows Part 2 - Rocky Balboa - V For Vendetta -- No Copyright Infringement Intended --
You gotta be a football player and/or a warrior to really appreciate Pacino's speech. Sacrifice. Dying for each other. Taking that inch. You die for that. You live for that. You live. For each other. Any Given Sunday is so underrated.
Chaplin's speech in the Dictator brings a lump to my throat and a gut wrenching jerk, it's magnificent. Amazing to think that a man who made his career in silent comedy gave, in my humble opinion, one of the greatest spoken moments in movie history. Quite the most incredible thing.
The word for when you lose a parent is ‘orphan’. The word for when you lose a spouse is ‘widow’. But the loss of a child is so great, there is no word for it.
Chaplin's speech no matter how many times i hear it it always makes my eyes swell up.His speech is relevant today as it was when Hitler was in power,i always play this for my kids to make sure that their eyes and mind always stay open.
Except their minds will not stay open. They will put emotion before thought... There are good parts to that speech, but it is also fundamentally flawed. He asks you to listen to your emotions, not your head. And that is how people end up as marionettes, sad to say. Communism that eventually falls to dictatorships(more like immediately), are all originally built upon sympathy. That is the downfall. Judge with logical reasoning, logical philosophy, not emotions. Emotions should merely be used to determine the basic goals, not how they are achieved. Or like average nazi and communist party supporters, you merely end up being used by tricksters and madmen.
wrong, wrong, wrong, when you are a corpse you no longer have life. Unless we can figure out how to transfer consciousness over to a new cybernetic body.... before it expires in your body of birth at your time of death
@douglas wahid everyone lives by other peoples rules. Otherwise many would just be wild animals and just kill each other all the time. We are all born into a world of preexisting rule sets that we must adhere to or face consequences. But it is still a choice. You choose how far you go on the spectrum.

"Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness hard and unkind. we think too much and feel too little. more than machinery, we need humanity. more than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost..." have many people forgotten this these days? "To those who can hear me i say do not despair, the misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed; the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. the hate of men will pass..."
I use to think of myself as a fan of old films, how can i claim such if today is the first day i ever watched chaplins speech, it was sincere, touching, and written by a person way ahead of their time, beautiful scene.
I always believe Charlie's speech was way beyond that movie. I think he took that opportunity to pour his heart out to the world. Hence the greatest. Neville Longbottom's was truly inspiring too...
I know that people or more use to modern day speeches from sport movies or Rocky. I do respect them and all. But I respect the Chaplin speech a 100x more than anything. He had the best speech out of all these scenes. Not only is this scene old, but it's so true and goosebumps worthy. I believe we all come from this. We all look for happiness, we all look for peace and no war, but that shows we let things get bad. We don't stand up and fight back for our perspectives. That scene says it all.
When I heard the speech from Rocky I started hearing my dad saying those lines not Stallone. My dad is gone but every time I feel down I think of him watching over me and trying to teach me to be a man to stick up for myself and to work hard for what I want and not skirt of by doing the bare minimum. I miss him and all of my hard work is dedicated to him I hope that when I graduate from college and get ready face life head on he will be proud of where I land and how I manged to get through all the hardships.
You had an AMAZING FATHER... He gave you Love...and HOPE. How blessed you are to carry that in you and pass it Down to your children...Mother Theresa once said...." IF YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE WORLD, GO HOME AND LOVE YOUR FAMILY "
Al Pacino and Rocky's speech was about life, Mel Gibson in Braveheart was about Freedom, and Charlie Chaplin was about the World and Harry Potter idk y it was in there. Lol
Because Harry Potter? Yeah I don't know why it was there, I would have put the last speech from Return of the King there, or a dozen others but well not my list.
If you watched the Harry Potter series you would know There is 4 houses; griffindor hufflepuff ravenclaw and slytherin. They are each associated with attributes and characteristics.Nevelle was choosen to be in griffindor which is associated with braveness. Throughout the series nevelle showed no signs of braveness at all until this one moment when everyone thought they had been defeated he stepped up to the ‘dark lord ‘ which takes a massive amount of bravery
Conor Henry the act was brave, yes. The speech itself, especially out of context, doesn’t do much to inspire me personally! Was a wonderful scene in the movie though, just doesn’t quite fit in with these other speeches. Ty for the comment tho, makes it even more meaningful
Chaplin's speech wasn't just 'clever writing'. It was a complete and total understanding of what was going on in Nazi Germany nearly a year before the American Government were forced to address it ( Pearl Harbour ).. not only that, Chaplin deliberately left it open-ended, so that it applied to everyone... past and future... including the poor saps who died in 'the Gulf" to ensure Dick Cheney, George Bush, Tony Blair and their buddies got a little more money in their bank accounts
It is really sad how horrible these people are for money and power, especially considering how all of them will be dead in 50 years or sooner. Imagine how much good they could do for the world if they worked as hard for the world as they do for money and power.
Meh, the world is going to hell in a hand basket, and when the soil has reached a salinisation point where food can no longer be grown and the oceans are poisoned with all the shit we dump in it (and that's not even including Fukushima in that - which is still leaking into the ocean), those who have lived for greed and the accumulation of money will suddenly realise that all their money cannot separate them from the rest of the population of earth as we all die slowly due to thirst and hunger. Gosh I'm cheerful this morning!
Perhaps dictators are no longer the concern of countries abroad. But everyday, it seems, every single individual on earth becomes more unkind. They care less about others and more about themselves. If the world were selfless there would be no tribulation. Now, it comes in the form of CEO's. Political figures with even the slightest taste of power. Your boss. Your bully. And sometimes even people's mothers. The speech is still relevant.
I feelt nevviles speech from Harry Potter jjst because I've lost alot of friends and family but it inspired me to keep going on no matter who comes or whatever comes in the way
"Good morning. Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind, that word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences any more. We will be united in our common interest. Perhaps it's fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom. Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution, but from annihilation. We're fighting for our right to live, to exist�and should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice, 'We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on, we're going to survive.' Today we celebrate our independence day!"
HusSainTee You'll be happy to know that he was later banned from the US for being supposedly anti-capitalist and anti-nukes. His rhetoric against tyrants was all well and good while Hitler was still a menace, but once it became the injustice of post-WW2 USA against the injustice of the USSR, he found he was without a just nation to call home.
AL PACINO was a NATURAL! That is why he remains my most favourite actor and legend in that profession --for life! His classic movie, Scent of a Woman, is the epitome of his life's work beyond SCARFACE and The Godfather - "oow -huh!"
I am optimus prime and I send this message to any surviving auto bots taking refuge among the stars and I send this message so our past will always be remembered for in those memories we live on
Chaplins speech is amazing who would know 5 years after this the world would try and tear it self apart for the second time. When will we humans lean how stupid we are
wow that last speech...from rocky really got to me... it really freakin did. I teared up. He's absolutely right. We got to keep moving from all the times life gets us down and keep moving. Touched me....even with that ridiculous accent....[;
In class, my teacher once showed use a video of a woman giving a motivational speech that essentially rips off everything Rocky says in his speech. Give you 3 guesses who did it a 1000 times better than the other.
Aragorn: "for Frodo..." Me: (trying to hold back tears, playing it cool) (Last scene) Aragorn: "my friends, you bow to no one" Me: (cries hard like a baby) 😂😂 Best manly tears ever shed!!
If it wasn’t for the fact that he said democracy all of the time, Chapman’s speech could easily have been about communism. They are all the same ideals, give the same promises, and go wrong for the same reasons. Good people and ambitious people don’t mix that well, because a lot of good people aren’t ambitious, and a lot of ambitious people realise to achieve what they want they don’t have to b good.
Very good comment and I must add only a very small percentage of people in a population have the ambition, discipline, consistency and vision to accomplish great things...that is why the 1% control the remaining 99% but do not tell that to a Socialist they will never understand.....
Your right, the idea of democracy feels shoe horned into the speech. But that's because it's essentially a placeholder ideal in current service to express something far deeper and significant, the hope that mankind can stop misery. That is why I see your comment as the zeitgeist example of thinking that requires the guidance presented in this speech. At even this moment in history, with the current technology, information and systems, it is within our power as a group that we need Not harm one another to gain! Instead we might gain together, though it is a much harder choice that requires more from us individually, it is an achievable goal that requires the one thing that Chaplin asks for, an accord between all humans that we should move forward only if it is not at the expense of others. Not perfectly, or exactly equal, can gains be made but let us not suffer the illusion that misery of others is a necessary evil; it is not. It is due to a weakness of morality and reason that we have been led to look at others as stepping stones.
Bruh, its 3:00a here but the Any Given Sunday speech has me getting dressed right now so I can go down to the corner store to find somebody to tackle the living fuck out of!!
